Test 2: Lecture 6

Question 1

left lateral: what side is down?

Answer 1

left is on the table

Question 2

what part of the patient is non dependent?

Answer 2

the side not on the table

on a left lateral: the left side is the dependent side, the side closest to the table. The right side is the non dependent side

Question 3

VD

Answer 3

ventral dorsal

pet laying on its back

hits dorsal then ventral

Question 4

positional atelectasis

Answer 4

collapse/compression of the lung

if pet on side, gravity will squish the lung

inspiration or expiration will give better image?

Answer 5

inspiration more air = more contrast= easier to see nodule
